February NWCPP Meetin

Abstract
Over the last few months, I have been working on updating my C++ course materials with topics from C++ 20, as well as drafting chapters for a book on modern C++ for finance. In this presentation, I thought I would share some of what I've learned about C++ 20. The emphasis will be on a broad range of highlights such as modules, mathematical constants, ranges, views, concepts, and the new date class, along with a few examples of practical applications.Speaker Bio

Abstract
I know what you’re thinking. You don’t believe me. After all, it took C++ only 20 years to design and implement modules. I must be nuts. They must be coming to take me away. [1] But hear me out. Even if you don’t agree, it’s an interesting story. And I know you want modules in your C work, as #include is an abomination in modern languages. #include is as primitive as a VHS copy of 2001: A Space Odyssey. This module method can work with your favorite C compiler, too!
Oh, and wait till you see what importing modules from other languages does to C!

Abstract
Rust is a general purpose, safety oriented programming language. I’ve been using Rust professionally for roughly 2 years now and I would like to share some of the strengths and weaknesses that I have found during that time.
While this won’t be a formal introduction to Rust, anyone with a software background will be able to follow along. In several places I will compare and contrast Rust with C & C++. The presentation will give you a good background as to when you should consider Rust for a project as well as highlight several of the pitfalls I have run into when working with Rust.
